And the chaos that's created from that, most people can't handle it because they don't know what to do with it.

So the solution then is to get up and get on your computer and surf or watch TV or...

do something to distract you from that feeling that makes it go away.

So over time, then, we become reliant on our outer world to change our inner world.

So then think about this.

When you lower the volume to that emotion and you take your attention off the problems in your life, and you do it with a level of passion and keep returning to the present moment, you're going to begin to weaken the energetic bonds with everyone and everything in your life.

And when you have an energy that's greater than the energy that's holding you together,

holding you connected to every person and everything in your life, there's going to be a break in that energy, and that energy is coming back to you.

That's chaotic energy.

That's difficult energy for the body to deal with unless you know how to apply a formula, unless you know how to create order out of disorder.

So then, throw in the hormones of stress.

Living in stress is living in survival, and when you're in stress and you're in survival, the very chemicals of stress cause you to heighten your senses and narrow your focus on the cause, and now you're putting all of your attention on the material world.

Now, where you place your attention is where you place your energy, and the rush of adrenaline that's created from the hormones of stress arouses the body to such a degree that you begin to believe that you're your body.

It rouses the brain to put all of the attention on the outer world, because that's where the danger is.

And now, when we're under stress, we can't predict something, we can't control something, or we have the perception that something's going to get worse.

The moment we signal those chemicals, now, all of a sudden now, in survival, we're doing our best to control and predict everything in our life, to bring it all back together.

And so we begin to become over-focused, and we shift our attention from people to things, to objects, to problems, to places.

And every one of those has a neurological network in the brain, and the act of doing that causes the brain to become compartmentalized, and the brain starts firing in a very incoherent way.

When the brain is incoherent, you're incoherent.

When the brain isn't working right, you're not working right.
